Greetings blogosphere!

I have exciting news! No, I am not ending the blog.

Today marks my directorial debut. It’s a small effort but maybe just the beginning. I decided to go small tech for this video and shot the entire thing on a Sony point and shoot camera. I even used the camera’s built in audio pick-up for the sound. I was able to do the entire shoot in one morning since there was no equipment to set up. I also went low tech during editing. I used the free Windows Movie Maker software. There was a bit of a learning curve since it is very limited editing program but I was able to achieve a cut that satisfied me.

The actors are friends who generously agreed to donate a Saturday morning for my directing gig. Bart is played by Bart Taylor who is also one of the producers of Roomies. Maysen is played by Maysen Michaels.

So without further a-poo, I present Third Wheel.

To all of my dear readers on the snow covered east coast I bear a gift of humor and amusement via the video game couch. Enjoy!!

I’ve got two Mammoth Manor shorts to share with everyone.

First up- Mammoth Manor Apology

Actually, I should have posted that video after you watch the following.

Alien Handshake

I’m not sure how to explain the last video, but you can!! Leave a comment on our YouTube channel or at MammothManor.com.

Next month, I take a turn on the director’s chair for 2 shorts that I wrote, so stay tuned and thanks for reading!!

Enjoy!!

As a parting gift, we are including the gag reel from the filming of over 20+ episodes of Roomies. So call now, supplies are limited. Enjoy!!

P.S. I will be sending out a separate blog post with the newest Mammoth Manor video later today.

On behalf of the entire Roomies crew, thanks for watching!!

Mammoth Manor presents The Legend of Zelda: Breaking and Entering (and breaking).

I hope everyone has a great holiday and thanks for watching!!

This is blog worthy news since it happens so infrequently. I know my Least Coast readers want to pee in my cereal because rain is as part of their daily ritual as Sportscenter. Sorry? Not really.

I’ve had some one comment that the blog is just a pimp for Roomies and Mammoth Manor. Where is the original content and commentary that many people love to hate? I have an answer.

Roomies is down to the last 2 episodes of season 1. Also, I will be taking a break from Mammoth Manor to concentrate on submitting screenplays to various workshops and competitions. So, no more Roomies and Mammoth Manor. I will try to give you more posts about my screenwriting endeavors and any amusing, random stories that come my way. Now to the pimping.

Roomies ep. 18- The Wi-Fi

It stands for nothing.

Mammoth Manor presents Facebook Tombstone

Thanks for reading!!

I went to a taping of The Ellen Degeneres Show this week. Don’t judge. I have never seen the show before but it was a lot of fun. Matt Dillon, Ashley Greene, and Tia Torres were the guests. The only bad thing was that her 12 Days of Giveaway was beginning the following day. However, Ellen surprised the entire audience by inviting us back for one of the 12 Days of Giveaway!! So, I will be returning to see the show on the episode that will air on Thursday December 17th. Check your local listings to see what I win. Please be an iMac.

I have a new Roomies, Mammoth Manor and special surprise video for you this week.

Roomies episode 17- The Non-Conflict Beans.

Are you aware of the growing global crisis of conflict beans? Watch and get learned.

Mammoth Manor presents Tom Ramus: Center of Reality.

Tom Ramus answers the burning questions that plague the universe. This week Tom tackles the new trend called Music.

Finally, I have a special video shot and cut by my brother John. Long time readers of the blog know that I hold an annual flag football game on Thanksgiving dubbed Turkey Bowl (I thought of the name without any help). My brothers John and Ricky drove up to participate this year. Ricky played while John videographed the event. Enjoy!

2nd Annual Turkey Bowl.

Thanks for reading!!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Tomorrow is a busy day for me. Up at 6am to reserve the field for the 2nd Annual Turkey Bowl Flag Football game. Then driving to San Diego for Thanksgiving dinner and NFL bliss with Mom and 2 out of my 3 brothers. My other brother Ken will be enjoying oven roasted turkey goodness with his wife and family in Virginia Beach. Rounding out the day will be the traditional movie marathon at the local cineplex. This year’s selection will include A Christmas Carol, The Road, and either New Moon or Ninja Assasin (always have to throw in a turkey on Thanksgiving).

This week’s Roomies is a special Thanksgiving episode.

Over at Mammoth Manor is the final installment of the Man Rolls saga.

Enjoy and thanks for reading!

A quick shout out to all my Virginia readers. I heard you got some nasty weather yesterday. Hope you are staying dry and have power. I have 2 new videos to bring some happy sunshine to your grey skies.
